Description:

Ben, she whispered to the cavern in the back of her mind, the place where he used to live, as her eyes grew heavier and heavier. It was dark now, unused space that she couldn’t really fathom but could feel. As though the door that had bridged their minds together now opened into the vacuum of space, endless and black and cold, but she couldn’t bear to close it. To do so would offer a finality she wasn’t ready to face.
Sleep pulled her in further, her eyes slipping closed. And, as consciousness became water, slipping through her fingers and dripping into a dreamless slumber, she thought she heard a whisper from that vacuum in her mind. So soft and comforting, she couldn’t be certain she hadn’t imagined it.
Rey.
